To follow up on my article 1o blog, this week I am going to talk about why science and technology is important to us (society) and some ways that it affects our lives. This article was written by Minali Oak and is entitled Importance of Science and Technology. As stated in the article "science and technology are closely linked aspects of society and the studies and developments in both science and technology are essential for the overall progress of society." Why is this important? Science and technology affect us in everyday living; from studying the different branches of science to space exploration and human genetics. These are all things that affect us in one way or another, some underlined and some not. Technology also plays a big role. Technology has had many positive affects on our society such as the advancement of bicycles into scooters and motorcycles as well as telephones and the internet. All of these things have had huge impacts on the way that we as humans live every day. It has revolutionized human life. Stated in the article, we also have a new way of grouping technology that has allowed for easier use of information; "Digitizing of information has been a major breakthrough in the world of information technology. It has made possible the compaction of information, which in turn allows efficient information storage." These are only a few things that are important to us as a society through science and technology. The most important benefit of science and technology is the ease it has brought to our lives. Our society has accomplished many things over the years, some have been advantageous and some have been disadvantageous. Through everything that we have been able to do, I believe that most everything has been for the good. Science and technology are both very important to our society and are also compliments of each other which go hand in hand.
